Chapter 74 The Escaped Prime Minister

Looking at Jin Xiaomei's shy expression, Han Qi's face turned pale, and his originally bright smile froze on his face. He never dreamed that he would meet Jin Xiaomei here. If he had known that she was here, even if someone had put a knife on his neck, he would never have come to Li Zhang.

"I..." Han Qi was stunned for a while before he realized, but he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. He also asked for help to look at Li Zhang next to him, but Li Zhang looked at them with interest. He didn't expect that Han Qi would actually know Jin Xiaomei. Moreover, seeing Jin Xiaomei's expression on her face, seeing Han Qi seemed to see an idol, which made him more interested.

"Mr. Han, how do you know I'm here?" Jin Xiaomei asked shyly again at this time, her whole body flew to Han Qi like a huge leaf, and two flushed spots on her fat cheeks.

"Jin...Miss Jin misunderstood. I'm actually here to find Li Zhang!" Han Qi kept hiding back when he saw Jin Xiaomei coming over. Han Qi was known as a child prodigy and his mind was more mature than ordinary children. This was the first time since Li Zhang met him.

"It's such a coincidence. I'm here to find Li Zhang too. Is this what others say is a long-range fate?" Jin Xiaomei said excitedly when she heard this. She even grabbed Han Qi's arm. Although Han Qi was tall, she was still half a head worse than Jin Xiaomei. In addition, Jin Xiaomei's weight, Han Qi was like a quail meeting a hen in front of her. It didn't look like the same breed no matter how hard she looked.

Han Qi's expression was almost crying at this time, and he kept winking at Li Zhang. Seeing that Han Qi was really afraid of Jin Xiaomei, Li Zhang finally spoke up for him and said, "I didn't expect you to know each other, but Brother Han, you are a rare guest. Why did you have time to come to me today?"

Hearing Li Zhang's words, Jin Xiaomei realized that there were other people around her. She also reluctantly let go of Han Qi. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Han Qi hurriedly stepped back a few steps to avoid Jin Xiaomei, and then bowed to Li Zhang and said, "Brother Li, I suddenly thought that there was something urgent to do, so I will say goodbye!"

After Han Qi said that, he turned around and ran away. In fact, when he saw Jin Xiaomei just now, he wanted to escape, but he couldn't see his face. However, he suddenly realized that compared to losing face, Jin Xiaomei seemed more terrible to him, so he didn't care about anything else at this time, and found an opportunity to turn around and run away.

"Young Master Han~" Jin Xiaomei looked at Han Qi who was running away in panic and stomped her feet in anger. Li Zhang also felt the ground under her feet tremble. Then Jin Xiaomei gritted her teeth and took a step to chase after her.

Listening to the heavy footsteps of "dongdongdongdongdong~", Li Zhang finally couldn't help laughing. He didn't expect Han Qi to be today, but he didn't expect that Jin Xiaomei would fall in love with Han Qi.

In fact, what Li Zhang didn't know was that although Han Qi was young, he had already gained a lot of fame in Tokyo because of his talent. Many ladies also regarded him as the first choice for choosing a spouse. Thanks to Han Qi's young age, if he was two years older, someone might come to grab his son-in-law.

Han Qi escaped and Jin Xiaomei went to chase him, but Li Zhang did not rush to go to the store because it was already past breakfast time and was in the gap between breakfast and lunch, so there was no business in the store, and he rarely had a leisure time, so he sat in the yard and savored tea and rested, and by the way, he also sorted out what happened recently.

Since he met Mrs. Liu last time, Li Zhang has been constantly having sex. He has proposed marriage three times in just one month. Although he has rejected them, Li Zhang's sense of crisis has become stronger and stronger. All of this is obviously related to Mrs. Liu, the queen of the Song Dynasty.

"I haven't disclosed my identity yet, so I have caused so much trouble. If I really made it public, I am the cousin of the future emperor, wouldn't it cause more trouble?" Li Zhang couldn't help but say to himself with a headache.

However, just as Li Zhang finished speaking, the back door of the yard was quietly opened. Then a guy who was protruding his head appeared outside the door. When Li Zhang saw the other party, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Come in, Jin Xiaomei has left!"

After hearing Li Zhang's words, Han Qi outside the door breathed a sigh of relief, then walked in. It turned out that he had turned around from outside, went around the back door and came back. Jin Xiaomei was too fat and couldn't run fast, so he was thrown away by him.

"Why do you know Jin Xiaomei? He won't come back?" Han Qi quickly walked to Li Zhang, then looked outside the store carefully and asked in a low voice.

"I am not familiar with Jin Xiaomei. Her brother Jinshan is my friend, but I want to ask you, how did you meet Jin Xiaomei? And judging from her appearance, she seems to like you very much?" Li Zhang said at the end, a bit of a smirk on his face.

Han Qi smiled helplessly when he heard Li Zhang's words, "Don't joke, remember the last time, he asked me, some time ago, he took me to a poetry party. At that time, I thought it was just a few scholars gathered together to discuss poetry and essays, so I went there. However, I didn't expect that although there were scholars, there were more wealthy girls. These women were bored. They thought they had learned something after reading a few books, and even wanted to compete with us scholars, so I taught them a lesson."

"I understand. Xu Wen's sister is Jinshan's wife. He and Jin Xiaomei naturally know each other, so Jin Xiaomei must be there that day, and then she was impressed by your talent!" Li Zhang immediately guessed what happened later.

"There are many women who are impressed by my talent, but none of them are as crazy as her. For half a month, she pestered me almost every day and even found my house. In the end, I had no choice but to take the opportunity to go out of the city and find a temple to live in. I stayed in the door for half a month. I thought I finally left her this time, but I didn't expect to meet her here again today." Han Qi said in the end and showed a look of distress again.

"No wonder you haven't seen you this month. It turns out that you have fled outside the city." Li Zhang couldn't help laughing when he heard this. Jin Xiaomei was proud of being able to force Han Qi, who was the prime minister's talent, to such a level.

Han Qi looked outside the store again and confirmed that Jin Xiaomei had not come back. Then he felt relieved. Then he sat next to Li Zhang, grabbed the teapot and poured a bowl for himself. Then he drank it all and said again: "You can, you haven't seen each other for a month, and you actually opened another store. If you continue at this speed, it won't take long to stay your business in the entire Tokyo city!"

"What kind of business is my business, it's just for the sake of making a living." Li Zhang smiled calmly. In fact, he still has many ways to make money, but he didn't dare to take it out before. After all, he has no money and power. If he really takes out a business of making money every day, he might be swallowed up immediately. Even if he already knows that his life experience is extraordinary, he is not prepared to attract too much attention before the situation is clear.

"If you make a living, wouldn't other businessmen starve to death?" Han Qi couldn't help but give Li Zhang a blank look when he heard this. Then he hesitated for a moment before speaking again, "Li Zhang, the last time my second brother wanted to ask you to be my companion, it's mainly because you are so smart. It would be a pity if you don't study. But you wanted to support your family at that time, so your second brother didn't force it. But now you no longer need to worry about your livelihood. Should you consider studying?"

"Do you read?" Li Zhang also showed a contemplative expression when he heard Han Qi's words. Han Qi's proposal was definitely a kind of good intention. After all, in this era, if you want to make a name for yourself, you must study, otherwise you will have to fall into the inferior.

"Thank you for your advice. You must read. In fact, during this period, I am also considering whether to find a teacher to teach us. Not only will I read, but Douzi and others will also read together." Li Zhang said solemnly at the end.

"That's great. I know that your eyes are long-term and you will definitely not be blinded by the small profits in front of you. Maybe we can still participate in the imperial examination together in the future!" Han Qi said excitedly when he heard this.

"I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed. Although I can study, I don't plan to participate in the election." Li Zhang said again with a smile. Participating in the imperial examination is nothing more than seeking fame. He now knows his hidden background, and it's meaningless to participate in the imperial examination again.

"Why?" Han Qi asked in confusion.

"I can't explain this, but you will know it in the future!" When Li Zhang said this, he couldn't help but pat Han Qi on the shoulder and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, he and Han Qi will probably be in the same dynasty as in the future, but one is an official from an orthodox Confucian family, and the other is a relative of the foreign country. At that time, their relationship will probably not be as harmonious as it is now."
